I went into the Fischer RC[emoji640] Pro oneforty MV BOA this season. So far I really dig it. Once in and adjusted I rarely mess with it. My fit is pretty snug without it tightened so it doesn’t take much fiddling. Like how it wraps the lower foot without pressure points like a buckle. Hate loosening it as it pops a bunch of slack and takes time wheeling it back in. There, that’s my complaint. Lol

doesn't the boa have a positive click , AND a negative click on it? And pull out to loosen ALL the pressure?Quote:

Heritage Labs will release new skis in the mid fat and fat range that will lighten our wallets further.
yes you can tighten or loosen depending on which way you turn the knob with each click. Or pull the knob to fully release all tension.Quote:

Does anyone know what's wrong with buckles on boots?Quote:

Nothing at all! They work great. But boa opens up new options and ways to build boots which we have found has allowed new ways to think about ski boots and so far it’s performing really well!Quote:

If you build the shell for boa you can get a really good wrap from the shell with the single cable design. Clamping the toe down really does nothing so long as you are not in a boot way to big and you are trying to make a big boot fitQuote:

Good luck, you got this!Quote:

Fits wider than 96mm. They may call it 96mm. But it is wider. Still going to make a good everyday performance boot.Quote:

When can we get BOA on our pole straps? I want to dial them in but be able to adjust mid-run.Quote:

Youre making the WC boot, but not this?Quote:
